This is my first time here in Battle of Living Here and I needed to find a new provider. Marquita was so excellent in understanding and listening to my needs. I was scared of changing to a new doctor because Mice retired, but she made me feel at ease and I will go to her again.

Never been so pleased while establishing a primary care physician. So overall, I would yell Ms. Marquita. To the rooftop, I would tell everyone about her.

And I can't wait to tell more people.

She went to speak with someone else. When she returned, she said Ms Smith would see me. Everyone was so nice & helpful. Dr Smith was very thorough & super nice. She gave me 2 shots & some antibiotics for my sinus infection. I am already feeling better today & started my antibiotics. She even recommended an OTC allergy medicine I could take daily to help prevent some of my sinus issues. I would definitely recommend her & the Brusly BRG Physicians Group.

She listens to understand what you needs are before she starts making suggestions and/or adding medications to your daily regimen. She looks at all available options and made sure to go with what was best for ME, as her patient. She was very polite and knowledgeable. I have not been this impressed with a primary care provider in years!!! I'm definitely recommending her to my friends and family. She is AWESOME!!!

06/07/2024

Tbh :) I would like to say this is the first time ever going to a doctors office and not just have the nurse brush me off ! She actually listened & my lab results came back stating that things are actually wrong with my body! Previous people that I went to just try to give me a "diagnosis" and say I was healthy when I wasn't . They checked my blood pressure & heart beat all the time and said things are good without checking! But this provider definitely ran test on me & cared !!!

06/07/2024

Loved Dr. Smith!!

06/04/2024

I like Marquita she's great. She's patient, personal, friendly and she listens to us. We always feel comfortable calling and asking questions when we need something and that makes a difference in our life because our insurance is like a miscellaneous insurance which pretty much nothing.

06/03/2024

Excellent work team, very grateful to everyone, very good attention and excellent treatment

06/03/2024

All very well

04/19/2024

Yes, I would like to say since I've been going to this doctor, my health is beginning to improve, especially just my diabetes. So she has been very helpful and she's very, she's very attentive and very concerned about her patients. Bye and be blessed.

04/15/2024

I have been to several doctors in my life. This is the first time I ever had such a great experience . They were so friendly and helpful. I have told so many family, friends and co- workers about them.

03/25/2024

Yes, she was very concerned about what's going on with me. She respected what was going on with you, talked to me. I mean, she did very right by me. Thank you.

04/05/2024

Very good in everything

03/26/2024

Ms. Smith is one of the best doctors I have ever had. She is the reason I am getting my breast reduction after so long of fighting doctors, telling them that, hey, my breast is causing back problems and things like that. They just didn't want to believe me. They thought I was over exaggerating. And it just, I want to cry. It just warms my heart that she actually took her time to pay attention to me and understand and see, that she seen and seen the pain I was actually going through. So for that, I'm very grateful for her. I love her, even though I just met her. She's one of the sweetest doctors I have ever met. She's funny. It's like I could bond with her at a doctor's office and outside a doctor's office. And I truly appreciate everything she's done for me, everything she's gonna do for me. And I just can't wait for her to see the results of her blessing and her work that she helped me get to.

03/26/2024

I received exceptional service, and upon meeting my primary care physician, Marquita, she was very professional, she was very knowledgeable, she definitely built rapport with me, she was easy to talk to, she was very understanding, she actively listened, and responded to my concerns, and my questions, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. To me, it seems like the staff is very family-oriented, they get along with each other, and they just made me feel welcome, and a part of the family when I went. So, I truly enjoy all the staff at the Ben Ruth General Physician's office.

04/01/2024

My nurse practitioner Marquita Smith was/and still is in fact indeed very helpful & was very understanding and patient with me during my visit! I would gladly recommend her & her services to anyone!! Thank you so much for all that you do/did for me!!
